Organizing a Recruitment Campaign

Starting a recruitment campaign can be daunting but it doesn't have to be. There are a few main steps to begin the campaign. Once the first steps are completed, the campaign should be plain-sailing.

The main basic steps to begin your campaign are:

  • decide what kind of advertising you will need 
  • create recruitment forms for candidates to give you their details 
  • arrange who will interview candidates, and where.

After you have decided on the vacancies you want to advertise, and your job descriptions are up-to-date, you need to be looking at advertising your recruitment campaign. Most applicants expect details about your company and how they would fit in it. You need a print firm with the best quality for your advertising material. Your recruitment application forms to send out to applicants will need to be high quality showing your company brand.
